OBServices - DCBL - Claim form - Defence advice

Hi,

I'm after some advice on how I should word paragraph 3 for a defence submission via MCOL please.

I've read newbies and template defence threads.
AOS was submitted via MCOL 1st Dec, 5 days after issue date of 26th Nov.

Here are some particulars:
Date: 07/04/2022 (!l

The overstay to best of our recollection was only a short period of.time (it was so long ago). The car park is free parking, max stay 2 hours .

We contacted the retailer immediately after the first OBServices PCN, they did not want to help.

Subsequent letters from OBServices ignored.

We've since had 3 DCBL letters this year, all ignored.

Contacted retailer again after third DCBL letter, who did this time email OBServices asking for the PCN to be cancelled. OBServices refused stating it's too late, and to speak to DCBL as it's now with them (we have not contacted DCBL).

So now we're at the claim stage.
Claim form attached.

I'd really appreciate some advice on how to word paragraph 3 for the defence submission.

Thanks in advance.

    Study the paragraph 3 wording in any DCB Legal cases on here,  especially ECP or UKPC cases, and adapt accordingly 

    DCBL are not involved here,  only DCB LEGAL
